It is finally here! Season 2 is officially live, with a new revamped look! Autism is much more than a puzzle piece. A puzzle piece can not define autism, but it can be expressed as a rainbow hand. This field is about moving forward, promises, and experiencing new beginnings. The hand represents us all. They say when you've met one individual with autism, you've met one individual with autism. It's true! We're in this together to change the world. Now let's get to the first episode of Season 2!
Victoria describes herself as an AWESOME AUTISTIC! She has a bachelor's degree in psychology from Tougaloo in Tougaloo, MS. She is six months from receiving her Master's in ABA from Capella. She is also an autistic mom. She is working towards her dream of becoming a BCBA. She hopes to inspire others with her gift. Be sure to check her out on her Instagram .

Hey Everyone! Episode 9 of The Behavior Trap Podcast Is live. I had the opportunity to talk to Megan Mackellar. Megan is currently a Senior 1 Animal Trainer at SeaWorld Orlando and an RBT with Life Skills Behavioral Services. She has been working in the behavior service delivery field for 20 years. This has given her experience with athletes, students, children with ASD and behavioral struggles, horses, pets, exotic reptiles, birds of prey, sharks, otters, penguins, pinnipeds, small mammals, pilot whales, and killer whales. She received her B.Sc. from Fairleigh Dickinson University with a major in marine biology, minor in chemistry, and concentrated in animal behavior research. There she studied the behavior of snails, freshwater muscles, and even jellyfish! The program sent her to the Dominican Republic for four months where she studied and observed Humpback whales. Megan’s senior research study questioned the correlation between the disposition compared to the learning curve and retention rates in canines.
She is a recent graduate from Purdue Global University with a M.Sc. specializing in ABA. Megan took a different path for her thesis and addressed an opportunity for the expansion of ABA within zoos, specifically with marine mammals. Her research established and operationally defined a socially significant behavior with killer whales, used a condensed functional analysis, and paired Behavior Skills Training with Discrete Trial Training. Many might feel that animal behavior studies should automatically be considered basic research, Megan’s study adds to the growing number of investigations demonstrating that applied animal behavior fits firmly within the seven dimensions of ABA.
Megan’s goals are to help bring awareness and address the current gap in knowledge of ABA technology within zoos, support the generalization of established behavior treatments within zoological facilities, increase the understanding and ABA technology within zoos, and demonstrate how the science of ABA can be used to operationally define, assess, and quantify animal welfare.
Tune In to learn more about Megan!
See Ya!
